Talk to distros. My experience is that this will be an absolute no-go for most distros. You might find one or two, but I doubt any of the major distributions will do that. The obvious reason is that it would be impossible to install frameworks and lxqt at the same time. Note that this is about frameworks and not even Plasma. Plasma has no play in kglobalaccel.
